Gandhi Jayanti
Out of commitment, humans can move mountains. One shining example is Mahatma Gandhi, whose commitment moved millions of people across the world.
Today, on Friday, India is celebrating Gandhi Jayanti. It is the 151st birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. Born as Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi on October 2, 1869, he is also called the Father of the Nation. Fondly referred to as “Bapu”, his philosophies still motivate and inspire people across the world, especially his teachings about non-violence.
People celebrate this day with prayer services, commemorative ceremonies, and cultural activities that take place in schools, institutions of local government, and socio-political institutions. Also, Mahatma Gandhi’s statues are adorned with garlands and flowers.
This day is usually celebrated with prayers or cultural events in various parts of the nation. However, keeping in mind the ongoing pandemic, many are paying their respects, this year, with small ceremonies. There are some who have also taken to various social media platforms, especially Twitter, to show their respect.
On the occasion, Nuvanta Tiles is sharing some interesting and valuable quotes, wishes, and messages that you can share with your friends and loved ones. Happy Gandhi Jayanti to you.
